PACIFIC FLOORMEN 
CLOSE GOOD SEASON 

Last Tow Games Go to Strong 
Linfield "Wildcats" 



! ASSOCIATED STUDENTS 

ELECT NEW OFFICERS 



Pacific closed the basket ball season 
of 192S-29 by dropping two games to 
the strong Linfield team, the Hist on 
the home floor on the evening of Mar. 
1, the second at Linfield on last Tues- 
day. 

The first game was a rather slow 
drawn out affair and both teams show- 
ed all the poor basket ball they knew 
before settling down to some real fight- 
ing. The half closed with the score 
tied up at 1G all. 

The second half was different, Lin- 
field starting the scoring and maintain- 
ing her lead the rest of the game. The 
final score was 37-27. 

The game at Linfield was a very 
pretty exhibition of basket ball on the 
part of the Wild Cats. The varsity 
did not see the ball very often, and 
got it "less oftener." Linfield was "on" 
in every phase of the game and their 
open plays on the big floor left the 
home varsity quite in the proverbial 
hole. The only time they caused a 
thrill was in the last few minutes when 
Cole and Sweet dropped in about five 
baskets. Pole was off most of the game 
and the rest of the team were quite 
unable to keep track of their men. The 
final score was 59-33. 

This was the last game for the col- 
lege that Sweet and Everest will play. 
It is only fitting that the Crescent staff 
express in some small way its appre- 
ciation of their hard work for the 
school's athletes and for the continu- 
ance of the "Good Sportsmanship" code 
which the school tries to maintain. 
Both these men will be badly missed 
on future basket ball teams, and it is 
(lie wish of the Crescent that they be 
as successful at the "Big Game" as 
they have been for our school.

World Listens as Chief Executive Takes 
Oath of Office as President 

Monday, March 4, the students of 
Pacific College and Academy enjoyed 
the privilege of hearing the Presiden- 
tial Inaugural proceedings as carried 
on at Washington, D. C. Through the 
courtesy of Sweet and Huntington, lo- 
cal radio dealers, there was a good set 
installed in the college chapel and from 
nine to twelve o'clock college and acad- 
emy classes were dismissed. The stu- 
dents met in the chapel and heard the 
description of the ceremonies. It was 
all very interesting and of no little ed- 
ucational value to the students. Again 
we were very proud of the fact that 
at one time our new President of the 
United States of America was a student 
of our institution. May his adminis- 
tration be a prosperous and peaceful 
one.

1 BASEBALL PROSPECTS ARE 

GOOD AT PACIFIC COLLEGE 



PACIFIC COLLEGE SUPERS PROVE 
ABILITY TO WIN IN FAST GAME 



After losing to the Linfield Seconds 
on their home floor, the Pacific Babes 
came back to beat them on the Lin- 
field floor. The game, though slow, 
showed by far the best basket ball the 
seconds have displayed this season. 
The ball was teamed quite well and 
some nice shots were made by Wood. 

We are glad the seconds turned in 
a good game with which to close the 
season. They have showed that they 
can fight and can win if they want to. 
Here's to them for next year! 



P. C. STUDENT SPEAKS ON 

VALUE OF COLLEGE LIFE 



Sunday afternoon, March 10, Ralph 
Choate took part in the educational pro- 
gram of the Quarterly meeting at the 
Lents Friends church in Portland. He 
gave a brief talk on "Why I Am At- 
tending Pacific College." 

f "\ 

My soul shall make her boast in 

I the Lord: the humble shall hear 
I thereof and be glad. — Psalm 34:2. 



With a good basketball season over 
and baseball weather here, P. C.s hope- 
fuls are limbering the old arm. for what 
appears a winning season. Coach Gul- 
ley, known of old, is well versed and 
has many baseball tricks up his sleeve, 
and expects to push the boys over the 
top this season. He will have the fol- 
lowing men to make good his hopes: 
Sweet, a Ietterman of the mound, with 
Harley Bissett finding the old groove 
and showing plenty of stuff. Behind 
the bat will be two contenders, Smith 
and Huntington, both new at this place 
hut capable. At the first sack is Ha- 
worth and Harle, both lettermen of last 
year and both heavy sluggers. At sec- 
ond, Moore and Bissett will scrap it 
out. Third will fall to Gettman, a for- 
mer Ietterman at that position. And 
at shortstop McKibben, a new but flashy 
fielder and sure hit batter. The out- 
field will fall to three of several smack- 
ing strikers, Wirt, De Vine, Wood, Ken- 
dall, Whitlock, Sandoz, and McGuire. 
Besides these there are new men the 
height of whose ability is not yet known. I 

There being high enthusiasm, P. C. I 
will put out a track team this year. 
Work has already begun upon the track 
and equipment and a call for turnout 
Will be made this week. This will be j 
the first track season at P. C. in about 
15 years, and a favorable result is an- 
ticipated since everyone is "rarln' to | 
go." As yet the amount of material 
is only prospective, but such as there 
is is plenty good for the field events, 
and fast for the sprints and distances. | 
Bissett, Wood, Harle, Haworth, and 
Wirt are the known former high school 
stars, and these with the rest of the 
turnout can show any track team a 
real meet. As far as known, the con-

FACULTY AND STUDENTS HEAR 
A WORLD FAMOUS PIANIST 



Last Saturday night a few faculty 
members and students enjoyed the priv- 
ilege of hearing the world famous Rus- 
sian pianist, Sergei Rachmaninoff, at 
the Portland Auditorium. Rachmanin- 
off made his appearance about eight- 
thirty and from then to the end of 
the program he was master of that 
great audience. The auditorium was 
well filled with music lovers and it 
proved to be a very appreciative audi- 
ence. 

Rachmaninoff began his program 
with the composition, 'Sonate, opus 109, 
by Beethoven. He then played pieces 
from such great composers as Schuman, 
Chopin, Rubinstein and Medtner. Rach- 
maninoff then played his own compo- 
sition, Etude-Tableau, after which he 
played short pieces by Ravel and De- 
bussy. The program was completed by 
a group of three short sketches by 
Scriabine. 

At every moment of the concert Rach- 
maninoff proved himself the master of 
his instrument and the concert was 
by far the best ever heard by the writer. 

At the close of the concert the audi- 
ence showed their appreciation by en- 
coring Rachmaninoff until he had play- 
ed several short numbers. The crowd 
was particularly enthusiastic when he 
.it last played his own great composi-

The American History and Civics 
classes of the Academy made a trip 
to Salem to visit the legislature on 
Friday, March 1. 

The classes and the teachers, Mrs. 
Wood and Miss Sutton, left the col- 
lege at 8:30. They all arrived In Sa- 
lem before 10 o'clock and those who ar- 
rived first, climbed to the top of the 
dome on the Capitol building, and from 
there loudly hailed the late arrivals. 

When they all met they went in one 
group into the House of Representa- 
tives. They remained there for about 
an hour, during which time they heard 
interesting discussions on the free text 
liook bill and the bill for appropriations 
for the infirmary at U. of O. They 
were in the House when the former bill 
was defeated and the latter one passed. 
Then they divided into several groups 
and went to eat lunch. 

The Senate opened at 1:30, and at 
1 o'clock most of the students were in 
the Senate, willing to sit in the smoke, 
to be able to get a seat, for the small 
Senate room was usually crowded and 
most people had to stand or stay out. 
The classes remained there until 2:30. 
During the hour in the Senate they 
listened to discussion on the bill about 
Portland telephone rates, but they had 
to leave just before the vote was taken. 
Senator Butt from Newberg gave a 
speech in this discussion. 

Then the group went through the 
State Penitentiary and the Insane Asy- 
lum, both of which proved interesting. 
At 4 o'clock they all started home. 
The day was enjoyed by everyone and 
it proved very much worth while. 

John Astleford was delayed and did 
not arrive at the college building until 
after the others had left. When he 
had not come the others thought that 
he had decided not to go and went on. 
But John started out to walk and final- 
ly got a ride into Salem and arrived 
there a little after noon. He found the 
rest in the Capitol building. 

Those who took cars were: Miss Sut- 
ton, Mrs. Wood, Eldon Newberry, Den- 
nis McGuire, and Lillian Barnes. Mrs. 
Barnes and Mrs. McGuire accompanied 
the group and altogether there were 
23 in the party. 

LaVerne Hutchens and Ralph Moore 
were unable to go on this trip. 



TRIP TO PORTLAND NAT 

PROVES A REAL TREAT 



Saturday, March 2, a group of sfx 
dorm residents went to Portland and 
enjoyed a two hour swim at the Port- 
land Nat. The party included Miss 
Verplank, Esther Roberts, Betty Works, 
Governor Terrell, Lincoln Wirt and 
Ralph Choate.

ings that are being held in the

I THANK YOU 

As I take up the duties of editing the Crescent, I wish to 
thank the members of the Associated Student Body for allowing 
me this privilege. My work as Associate editor proved to me that 
there is much to do in producing a college paper. You members 
of the A. S. B. have supported the paper wonderfully in times 
past and I feel keenly the need of your cooperation in making 
the Crescent all it can be made. 

I wish that each one of you would feel that the Crescent is 
your paper, and I want yon to help by contributing whatever 
items you believe will be of interest to the students. Don't let 
the staff do all the work, but each one of you feel your respon- 
sibility toward your paper. 

As the new group of officers begin their administration I 
am impressed anew with our responsibility toward them and the 
success of their work. Let us lend our most hearty cooperation 
to these new officers and help make this administration a highly 
successful one. R. E. CHOATE. 



Spring is just around the corner and the basket ball season 
is past. Because it is so nearly spring, the thoughts of an ath- 
letic young man turns to Baseball and Track. With these two 
sports so wholeheartedly begun already on the campus, we may 
expect great things before the season ends. There is a great 
chance for expression of athletic prowess in these two sports. 
May the students of Pacific back these spring sports as enthusi- 
astically as we have backed the sports of the fall and winter 
season. R. E. C.

PARLOR NIGHT ENJOYED 

Tuesday evening. March !i. the dorm 
residents spent an enjoyable time at 
the girls' dorm immediately following 
dinner. Some of the group played ping 
pong down in the dining room, while 
others listened to several piano trios 
in the parlor. As a closing feature of 
the evening there was some excellent 
music by the "Second Floor Serenad- 
ers," a trio composed of Eleanor Whip- 
ple, accordion; Helen Whipple, Hawai- 
ian guitar: and Betty- Works, ukelele. 
Their concert was greatly enjoyed by 
the entire group of listeners.

FROM ATHLETICS 



SECOND TEAM WINS 

The Pacific Academy second team de- 
feated the Fernwood Grade School 2S-S, 
Saturday, March 2. at Fernwood, 

The game easily belonged to the 
Academy subs after the first five min- 
utes, when they obtained several bas- 
kets. Although an unusually large- 
number of fouls were called, the game 
was not rough. The subs showed fine 
team work and developed a fine of- 
fense in the second half, as well as a 
splendid defense. The scoring was 
about evenly distributed between the 
players, Hutchens leading for the Acad- 
emy. 

The Academy boys who played were 
Hutchens, O. Kendall, capt., Hanson. 
Haines, Haworth, and Thorne.

HOT DINNER SANDWICHES 



The Casket Ball Manager has com- 
piled a few totals dealing with the bas- 
ket ball season just past. 

For instance, the score book says 
that the Varsity scored a total of 5S(i 
points against 513 scored by their op- 
ponents. They committed a total of 
10,"> personal fouls, while the opposing 
teams were dirty 100 times. Out of a 
gross of 135 foul shots they weie only 
able to convert 34, while the other 
teams converted 73 out of 13S attempts. 
The home boys counted 20(1 field goals 
and held their rivals down to 220. 

There is also some inteiesting data 
as to the individual players. 

Cole was high point man of the sea 
son with a total of 174 points. These 
were scored on 82 field goals and 10 1 
fouls, i-le committed 3 5 personal fouls 
and scored 10 out of 20 foul shots fori 
a percentage of 30. 

Sweet lang up 127 points on 57 field I 
goals and 13 fouls. Eighteen personals 
were called on him, and he counted 13 I 
fouls out of 24 shots to hold the high- 
est percentage, 54 per cent. 

llarle only had 13 personals, the; 
least of anyone. He caged 32 field 
goals and 10 fouls for a total personal 
score of 74. He made the 10 fouls 
out of 21 shots for a percentage of 4S. 

Haworth was next to high point man 
with 103 counts. He was high in per- 
sonals with the neat little sum of 35. 
Out of 37 foul shots he rang up 13. 
Which with his 75 field goals makes 
his total. His foul molality was high, 
leaving a percentage of 35. 

Everest, standing guard, does not 
have much in the score book, which 
is as it should be. He made 33 points 
from 14 field goals and 7 fouls. He 
committed 24 personals and his foul 
percentage was 7 out of 14, or 50 peri 
cent. 

Of course this tells nothing of the 
men. Scores, though necessary in a 
basket ball game, nevertheless are not 
an index to a player's value. After 
seeing all the games and watching the 
players when on and off, wo would hate 
to have to pick the best. One man 
may be an outstanding point man and 
a rotten door and defense man. An- 
other may play the floor and not count 
points. Still others may be guards and 
ue\er have a chance to score. Each 
is as vital as the other and as neces- 
sary. 

To the writer the "outstanding" 
thing of the season has been good 
sportsmanship. May it ever be so!

Pacific Academy made this last sea- 
son a comparatively good record in 
basket ball. This was a season in which 
very few teams have gone undefeated, 
and Pacific Academy should be proud 
of her record, for she scored a total of 
272 points to her opponents 2CS in 15 
games; of which she won six games. 

Ralph Moore, forward, was high 
point man for this seiison with 02 
points. Carl Sandoz, running guard, 
and Damon McKibben, forward, ran 
Ralph a close race; Carl is credited 5S 
tallies and Damon with 54. The next 
drop is to Errett Hummel, who scored 
41 points from guard, center or for- 
ward; then Denis McGuire, who count- 
up 3(i tallies from center; Burton Frost 
with 12 points fiom guard, or forward; 
Morris Silver with S from guard, com- 
pletes this list. 

Twelve boys played for the Academy 
during the past season. Each boy 
played, out of a possible CO quarters 
the following: 

Carl Sandoz— 5!l 

Errett Hummel — 53 

Dennis McGuire — 50 

Damon McKibben — 4S 

Ralph Moore — 42 

Morris Silver — 20 

Burton Frost — 111 

John Thome — 4 

Ronald Hutchens — 3 

Marvin Barnes — 2 

Orla Kendall— 1 

James Haworth — 1 

This basket ball season is the most 
successful one the Academy has had 
for several seasons and everyone should 
be proud of the team, the record they 
made, and of the boys who played, for 
most of the time they had an uphill 
fight because they were playing against 
.schools larger than this. 



Saturday, March 2, Pacific Academy 
was defeated by Fei nwood 30-10 in the 
Fermvood gym. 

The Pacific boys played one of the 
best games of the season but were han- 
dicapped by having only four members 
o fthe regular squad piesent. Although 
the second team members, who played, 
did fine, they were tired from their 
own game, and the Academy passing 
attack was slowed quite a bit. Also, 
although the guards played a splendid 
game, the Academy defense was weak 
because the running guards had to 
play a more offensive game and leave 
the back guard alone to guard the bas- 
ket. 

The Fernwood team played well and 
had the advantage from the start. How- 
ever, the Academy boys were fighting 
all the time and took advantage of 
every break that came their wav.

Morris Silver and Errett Hummel. 

All the fellows brought their dinner

able noon hour, and suggested that 
more meetings of this kind be held.

ACADEMY LITERARY SOCIETY 

INITIATES NEW MEMBERS 



The Athena Literary Society met in 
Room 14, on Wednesday afternoon, 
March G, to initiate the new members. 

The meeting was turned over the 
chairman of the initiation committee 
after a short business meeting. 

First, the new girls, Marian Coffee, 
Eloise Crozier, Mildred Smith and Eliza- 
beth Aebischer, gave very pleasing 
verses. Then they were instructed to 
change their dresses inside out and 
front side back. They then went over 
to serenade Mrs. Jlodgin, and as she 
was not at home the girls visited Pres. 
ident Pennington, who enjoyed it. 
Lastly they went to town and begged 
for Eskimo Pies which they received. 
Thursday at school these four maids 
were seen wearing long skirts and faces 
brilliantly (if artistically) painted with 
rouge and other cosmetics. 

The Athena girls are very glad to 
have these new members with them 
and hope that they will enjoy the so- 
ciety. 



I wish to thank all those that helped 
make Pacific Academy's basket ball 
season a success this year. Cars were 
easily obtained for our trips ami every- 
one made the woik a pleasure. 

I would also like to say a word of 
appreciation thanking Arloene Davey 
for faithfully and patiently typing all 
of my correspondence which was con- 
siderable.

MRS. CHASE CONOVER GIVES 

HELPFUL MESSAGE TO X. W. 



ACADEMY SECOND YEAR GIRLS LEARN THE PIANO 

HAVE CHARGE OF Y. W. C. A. IN fEN LESSONS 



Mis. Chase Conover spoke to the Y. 
W., March C. She read the fairy story, 
"The Golden Purse and the Seeing 
Eyes," suggesting its application to our 
own lives. 

The story is that of two brothers, 
to each of whom the fairies granted 
a gift. The younger took the gift of 
the Seeing Eyes, while the elder chose 
the Purse of Gold. College girls can 
choose to live either the self-centered 
life or the self-giving life. 

How can we live to merit seeing eyes? 
Mrs. Conover hi ought out three ways 
in which we could do this. First, look 
for the good and beauty in people and 
things about us. We can usually find 
beauty if we are looking for it. Seek 
it in nature and in the gifts of civil- 
ization. Next, meet ciicumstances op- 
timistically. To illustrate this, Mrs. 
Conover brought out some of the facts 
of the life of Helen Keller. We should 
say, "I pray not for the stilling of 
my pain, but for the heart to conquer 
It." Finally, we should give ourselves 
to others without seeking advantage 
for ourselves. In these ways we will 
merit the gift of the Seeing Eyes. In 
conclusion, Mrs. Conover asked the 
question, "Are we going to live by the 
way of the Golden Purse or the Seeing 
Eyes?" 

Special music was given by a quar- 
tet — Genevieve Badley, Rachel Lund- 
quist, Stanley Kendall, and Frank Cole. 



A canoe is like a little boy. Both 
behave better when paddled from the 
rear. 



The second year Academy girls had 
charge of Y. W., February 27, with 
the life of Alice Freeman Palmer as 
the subject. 

The singing was led by Betty Works, I 
; with Gladys Allison at the piano. El- 
oise Crozer read the scripture lesson. 
I Martha Hothrock and Betty Works 
sang a duet. 

| Elizabeth Aebischer told briefly of j 
the life of Mis. Palmer. Ermine Cold- 
well spoke of her association with girls. 

j When she was teaching at a girls' sem- 
inary her criticisms of her girls was 

I that they lacked heart culture. She 
sought to develop friendships with the 
girls. She won their confidence by 
talking with them of the things which 

I she wanted to do and of their ambitions , 

| and problems, 

Mrs. Palmer gave to a group of girls I 
her formula for "how to he happy." 

' 1. Commit to memory something worth f 

. while every day. 2. Look for some- j 
thing about you which is pretty. 3. Do 

' something for someone. 

In conclusion Ermine rend the poem,' 
"The Tempest," which Mrs. Palmer 
wrote one night after their house had 

: been struck by lightning.

Picnic Lunch and Sports to Be 
Features of Campus Day 



The Annual Campus Day of Pacific 
College will lake place next Monday, 
April 1, A joint committee of faculty 
anil student body members met a few 
days ago and chose the eleven commit- 
tees. They also appointed the student 
chairman for those committees and the 
faculty member who will act as assist- 
ant chairman of each committee. The 
eleven committees, their chairmen and 
faculty assistants are as follows: 

Eats-Rachel Lundriuist, Miss Mc- 
Cracken. 

Driveway — Glen Rinard, Prof. Con- 
over. 

Canyon — Stanley Kendall, Trof. Mary. 
Front Campus- -William Sweet, Miss

Academy Building: — Lillian Barnes, 
Miss Johnson. 

College Building — Elisabeth Carey. 
Miss Betts. 

Sports Committee — Ben Huntington, 
Prof. Terrell. 

Tennis Courts — Frank Cole, Trof. 
Lewis. 

When the committees were complet- 
ed, the students were appointed to serve 
on a certain committee. Each one has 
a definite job to do. By that plan the 
campus should receive' a very thorough 
cleaning. The morning will be devoted 
entirely to hard work. There will be 
a picnic lunch at noon and when all 
the work is done the afternoon will be 
devoted to sports of a varying nature. 
Let us hope that old Jupe will have an 
urgent appointment in the Great Am- 
erican Desert that day and give us a 
dry day in which to beautify our cam 
pus.

WOOD-MAR HALL SCENE 
OF ST. PATRICKS PARTY 



Irish Students of Pacific College Prove 
Excellent Entertain?! s 

The Student Body of Pacific College 
enjoyed a very good time at a St. Pat- 
ricks party, given by the Irish of the 
college, at Woodmar Hall on the eve- 
ning of March 1G. 

The students were met at the door 
by the welcoming committee, who pin- 
ned a green shamrock on each one. 
If a stranger could have heard the 
"Shures" and "No, Indades" he would 
have surely thought he was in Ireland. 
The object was to say "shure" for yes, 
and "no, indade" for no. If they didn't 
they forfeited their shamrock. There 
was much excitement and exchanging 
of shamrocks. One girl succeeded in 
winning ten shamrocks. The first part 
of the evening was spent in playing 
such games as "Poison Penny," guess- 
ing games, the egg blowing contest, etc. 
One of the most interesting games was 
the game, "Are you there, Kelly?" Two 
boys "were blindfolded and a soda crack- 
er tied on the top of each one's head. 
They then knealt, facing each other- 
with one of their hands on a book be- 
tween them. They were each given a 
long rolled up newspaper and then the 
fun began. The object was to break 
the cracker on the opponent's head. 
They swung wildly at each other, hit- 
ting every place but the cracker. Some- 
times the roll of paper would saw swift- 
ly through the air only to hit on the 
floor. Finally the battle was won and 
a ci acker was shattered. It was a 
thrilling battle and was thoroughly en- 
joyed by the spectators. 

Partners were then chosen and all 
adjourned to the chapel where an in- 
teresting program was given. It con- 
sisted of: a reading by Delia Hanville, 
it clever skit entitled "Macbeth and 
Macduff" by live boys; two saxophone 
solos by Ralph Choate; a vocal solo 
by Burton Frost, accompanied by Fio- 
fessor Hull; another short skit in four 
scenes showing how a movie is made. 

Following the program the group was 
divided into three families, the Caseys, 
the O'Briens and the Murphys. Then 
followed a very thrilling nut hunt. Af- 
ter the hunt refreshments of shamrock 
ice cream and shamrock cookies were 
served. 

The Irishman who made the party 
a success was Dennis McGuire (Three 
rousing cheers for Dennis!). 



QUAKER GIRLS' SEXTET LOSES 
FINAL GAME TO REED GIRLS 



Playing a spirited game against a 
much larger team, the Pacific College 
girls' basketball team held the Reed 
College girls' team to the close score 
of 42-30. This game, which was the 
finale for the local girls, was played 
on the P. C. floor, Tuesday, March 1!>, 
starting at 7:00 p. m. 

The Reed "ferns" outplayed the Pa- 
cific aggregation throughout most of 
the game and were never in very se- 
rious danger except in the fourth quar- 
ter. In this canto the team, led by 
Captain Esther Roberts, made a deter- 
mined effort and brought the score to 
within six points of the Reed total. 
Reed called time out at this juncture 
and from then on the tall Reed for-

ROLAND HAYES CONCERT 
THRILLS GREAT CROWD 



Famous Negro Tenor is Rightly Called 
an Artist of Music 

It was the privilege of a number of 
students and faculty members to attend 
the Roland Hayes concert at the Port- 
land Auditorium on the evening of 
March fifth. The house was crowded 
from gallery to pit with appreciative 
admirers of the colored singer, yea, art- 
ist, for he was a perfect master of him- 
self and the stage. No less an artist 
was the accompanist, Percival Parham. 

Hayes' program was divided into 
three groups to include the classical 
songs in French and German, another 
group in English and a third group 
of negro spirituals. All was perfectly 
done, but his second group received 
the heartiest response from the audi- 
ence, to which he in turn responded 
most graciously with encores, and re- 
peated the song, "The Pool." This 
song, of exceeding brevity of composi- 
tion, was rendered in such a perfect 
manner as to be the outstanding num- 
ber of the concert. It was a perfect 
miniature in song. Singing the spirit- 
ual songs of his race first won Roland 
Hayes recognition, and he sings them 
perfectly; but there was somewhat a 
feeling of regret within the listeners 
as he turned from the classical, for in 
that he was such a master, to the spir- 
ituals. Having so graciously responded 
with encores during the program, 
Hayes' only final encore was a negro 
spiritual, "Were You There?" which 
he sang without accompaniment, the 
tones of his sweet tenor voice inter- 
preting the feeling of the song and com- 
pletely hushing the audience of thou- 
sands of people. 

During the entire concert Hayes did 
not make any dramatic "show" of him- 
self or his voice. His modest simplicity 
and sincerity of every action led the au- 
dience to look beyond the black face 
to the man, the artist. 

Those from Pacific who attended the 
concert were: Miss Verplank, Rachel 
Lundquist, Elinor Whipple, Horace Ter- 
rell, Ralph Choate and Charles Beals.

NEWBERG PEOPLE WITNESS 

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES 



Several Pacific students and Newberg 
folks were privileged to attend the final 
two games in the state high school bas- 
ketball tournament held at Willamette 
University, Saturday night, March 1G. 
Washington High defeated Wallowa to 
win first place in the consolation tour- 
nament and third prize for the cham- 
pionship division. Medford High (where 
Governor Terrell hails from) defeated 
Astoria for the title of " state champs." 
Those attending were Governor Terrell, 
Professor Gulley, Ben Huntington, Wal- 
ter Taylor, Frank Cole and Joe Wilson. 



The nine members of the college So- 
ciology class, accompanied by their in- 
structor, Prof. Emmett Gulley, Mrs. 
Gulley, and Miss Verplank, instructor 
of English of Pacific Academy, were 
visitors at the Court of Domestic Re- 
I lations of Portland. Thursday, March 2-. 
| Although it is not customary to hold 
I court on Thursdays, by special arrange- 
' ment with Judge Gilbert the court was 
j in session for the entire day, and a 
special group of cases were presented 
and tried for the benefit of the class. 

From approximately 10 o'clock in the 
morning until 5 o'clock in the after- 
noon members of the class witnessed 
1 one of the most interesting occasions 
of their experience. Seated close to 
i the cases upon trial, the class was able 
1 to witness the procedure of a very in- 
teresting and varied group of juvenile 
cases, from truancy to immoral delin- 
quency, from theft to infant adoption; 
each different from the others, and each 
filled with the pang of sorrow caused 
by unfortunate conditions. Practically 
I every case was the result either di- 
; rectly or indirectly from broken homes, 
I caused from death or by law. 
I Another interesting feature of the day 
| was the visit by the class to the jail, 
located in the same court building. The 
1 class was graciously shown through the 
1 jail by the officials, and had the oppor- 
tunity to inspect the prisoners and cells. 
| Approximately 400 prisoners lined up 
for inspection in the men's division, 
! and but 15 in the women's department. 
' Most of the prisoners were very young 
in appearance, most of which appeared 
' to be between the ages of 20 and 40. 
I Conditions in the women's department 
seemed to be much better than in the 
men's division. 

The trip was a most profitable one 
for the students and created much in- 
terest for all of the members of the 
party. 

Those making the trip were: Rosa 
Aebischer, Rae Lundquist, Margaret 
Jackson, Elisabeth Carey, Miss Ver- 
plank, Mrs. Gulley, Glen Rinard, Ken- 
neth Yergen, Ervin Diment, Philip 
Gatcli. Stanley Kendall, and Prof. Gul- 
ley. Prof. Gulley and Ervin Diment 
took their cars to accommodate for 
transportation. 



ACADEMY ELECTIONS PLANNED 

At a student body meeting on Mon- 
day, March IS, the matter of getting 
a better giade of letters for basketball 
men was discussed. 

The planning of Academy elections 
proved quite a problem, and it was de- 
cided to lay the matter on the table 
until the extent of next year's student 
body can be officially ascertained. If 
elections are held, the fourth years 
will have charge of a party system. 



The following people visited the Do- 
mestic Relations court of Portland for 
the afternoon session, with the college 
Sociology class Thursday: Genevieve 
Badley, Frank Cole, Generva Street, 
Helen Whipple, Professors Terrell and 
Mathers. Prof Terrell furnished trans- 
portation for the group. 



FRESHMEN READY TO BEGIN 

WORK ON THEIR CLASS PLAY 



"Come Out of the Kitchen," a three 
act comedy written by E. A. Thomas, 
has been selected by the Freshmen class 
as their play and is to be presented 
April 2G. According to Mrs. Wood, the 
coach, the cast will be chosen and work 
will be started as soon as the eligibility 
lists are completed.

TRACK NEWS 

Track, a sport at Pacific College for 
the first time in fifteen years, is "com- 
ing right along." Despite the fact that 
there are but ten fellows turning out. 
we have, considering the size of P, C. 
a wealth of material. Coach Gulley has 
developed an immense amount of in- 
I terest developing into the proverbial 
"bacon" which Pacific does its best to 
bring home in all sports. 

So far, the best distances in the field 
events, the discus, shot put, and jave- 
lin, are all held by Dick Everest, al- 
though no true measurements have yet 
been taken. Dick Haworth is runnel' 
up in all these events. 

In the high jump, Bob Bissett sits 
on top of 5 ft. 1 in., with Dame Mc- 
Kibben and Link Wirt close behind. 

The pole vault also falls to Bob at 
8ft. Fred Harle and Smitty, however, 
are threatening that mark. 

The running events are slightly bet- 
ter. The 100 yd. dash has been clocked 
at 10.5 seconds for both Bob Bissett and 
Link Wirt, while Dick Everest and 
Dame McKibben are but a step behind. 
The distance runs have all been swip- 
' ed by the mighty Dick Haworth, who 
has left his opponents all running back- 
wards. Dick copped the two-mile in 
11 minutes, 7 seconds (11:7), the mile 
in 5:25. and the half-mile (8S0 yds.) in 
2:21. Swede Hanson is a good second

OUR CAMPUS 

Several days ago a speaker in chapel gave us an exceedingly 
interesting talk in which he told us how fortunate we were in 
going to school in such a beautiful valley and such a clean and 
pretty little city. I enjoyed that talk because I got from it the 
viewpoint of a person who has not lived here for long and who 
has traveled much and can make accurate comparisons of this 
valley with other spots of more or less natural beauty. As I 
listened to the talk I began to wonder if we as students really 
do appreciate, as we should, the natural beauties of our surround- 
ings. 

A few days after having heard the talk I went back up on the 
top of Chehalem mountain in the evening just after sunset. 
From such a height I looked out over the valley and saw the 
farms marked off in much the same form as a crazy-quilt pat- 
tern, with small groves of trees making darker green spots 
against the background of open fields. In the west I could see 
the uneven horizon of the mountains, and the sky above them 
was dull gold which rapidly faded to a purple gold and finally to 
a deep blue. The lights of the valley began to show more plainly 
and made a lovely spectacle against the now dark valley floor. 
The moon came out in all its brilliance and the valley took on a 
most beautiful appearance. There was about everything that 
soft radiance that only moonlight can give. I sat for some time 
and watched the great panorama spread out before me and com- 
pared it in my own mind with other beauty spots of the country 
that it has been my privilege to see. 

I came back to the campus with a greater appreciation of 
the fact that I am attending Pacific College at Newberg in this 
beautiful northwest. Our own campus compares very favorably 
with campuses of great schools on which large sums of money 
have been expended. 

It is not long until our annual "Campus Day" and we will 
give our campus its spring cleaning. A pleasant environment is 
an important factor in success in any line. Whether or not it 
is realized at the time, everyone is more or less influenced by 
the surroundings. If we give our campus a thorough cleaning 
and then keep it clean, we will be better able to give the best in 
us to our work. 

The chapel speaker that morning gave us a challenge. First, 
look about you and realize the beauty on every side; and second, 
tell others about these advantages we enjoy and thus help our 
school to grow. Should we neglect such a challenge? 



Spike Thorne and Fred Harle are also 
i in the running. 

The riuarter-mile (-440 yd.) run is an- 
other tie, between Dick Haworth and 
I Link Wirt, the time being 1:3. 
I The 220 yd. dash, 120 yd. high, and 
I 220 yd. low hurdles, and the broad jump 
have not been attempted so far, though 
they will probably be entered by Bissett 
in the high hurdles and the broad jump, 
' Bissett and Everest in the 220 yd. dash, I 
leaving Bill Wood, McKibben and Wirt 
tor the low sticks. Errett Hummel is 
general utility man. 

There are, so far, but three Academy 
students out for track, and two of them 
; are Second Years, but Bob Bissett, man- 
nger, is issuing a call to all Academy 
students to turn out and make up the 
' rest of the semester's gym credit. 

The above marks and times are the 
I result of but two weeks of practice, 
I but by the time of the conference meet 
1 at Monmouth, May 11, with the back- 
I ing of all true Pacific students, the 
fellows will have bettered every mark 
and we can look forward to a good 
representation of Pacific College in the 
conference meet. Let's back them up!

The Willamette Valley Tennis tour- 
nament will take place at Linfield col- 
lege, May 17 and IS. Pacific should 
have entrants for every event so that 
means much hard practise on the part 
of the teams. Anyone interested in 



tennis still has a very good chance of 
getting on the teams. Better try it!

COOPERATION 

If you don't vote, you can't 
complain at what happens in the 
elections. That's either Amer- 
ican History or Civics. If you 
never contribute to the Cres- 
cent, you shouldn't complain at 
the type of material published. 
That's logic, reasoning, and 
should be an urge. There is a 
good deal of news going to waste 
in the Academy. Will you be 
a good little shepherd and help 
gather it in? — D. 

The Academy is glad to help 
Pacific along by furnishing Ar- 
loene Davey, Dennis McGuire, J 
Ralph More, and Damon McKib- 
ben as officers in the Associated 
Student Body. 

ACADEMY TUMBLING CLASS 

SHOWS EXCEPTIONAL ABILITY" 



TENNIS SEASON BEGINS 

Everybody is saying, "Well, spring 
is here. Everybody play this, or ev- 
erybody turn out for that." That's get- 
ting old already and it is the opinion 
of the writer that something original 
should be propounded on that line. 

Christmas is exactly nine months 
minus one day away, so it is time that 
many interested minds should be turned 
toward that exciting sport of tennis. 
Manager Choate, the keen minded push- 
er of this sport this year, has already 
begun hostilities against all opposing 
factors and has placed a tennis ladder 
in the gym directly alongside the main 
door leading to the gym floor. You say 
you don't know what a tennis ladder 
is? Well, it isn't the kind used to "get 
up" out of bed in the morning, nor 
is it the kind you use in hanging pic- 
tures. It is the kind of ladder on which 
the abilities of the twelve uppermost 
tennis masters are placed. All you have 
to do to climb is to defeat the fellow 
either one or two places ahead of you 
and change places with him. 

To make the original placements of 
the men a number of lots were written 
and drawn by entering contestants. De 
Vine stepped out to start the ball roll- 
ing by defeating Post. The order on 
the ladder at the present time is as 
follows: Cole, Beals, Gatch, De Vine, 
Haworth, Post, Kendall, Jackson, Ever- 
est, Huntington, Whitlock, and Smith. 
Others may crash in on the ladder by 
defeating either of the last two men. 



Professor Terrell presented the Acad- 
emy boys' tumbling class in a chapel 
program, Tuesday, March 1!). Dressed 
in neat white jerseys and trousers, the 
entire class participated in the program. 

After a short talk by Mr. Terrell the 
hoys demonstrated rolls and dives in 
their fundamental aspects. Then came 
leap frog stunts and dives from the div- 
ing board through a hoop. 

Orla Kendall displayed his ability to 
perform gainers. Terrell, Sandoz and 
he then executed front and back flips, 
and high and low foot balancing. 

The two boys displayed great ability 
in their back flips, doing them from 
the mats, from the hands, the shoul- 
ders, and the feet of the thrower, who 
obligingly assumed the proper positions. 

Fred Harle, assisting on the program, 
gave an exhibition of tight-rope walk- 
ing. Fred was loudly applauded for his 
ability to walk back and forth on the 
rope stretched about six feet above the 
floor. 

The previous three performers now 
delighted the audience with a high 
shoulder stand, and three man pyra- 
mids done on two tables. These were 
real thrillers. 

The program closed with two pyra- 
mids by the class. The first, a walk- 
ing pyramid, was composed of eleven 
boys, four of whom held the weight 
of the others and marched out on the 
platform and executed a left turn. 

The group then fell out, lined up, 
and arranged themselves in formation 
for the "squash" pyramid. This placed 
four boys on their hands and knees, 
three on top of them, two higher up, 
and one man at the top. After holding 
this position for some time the entire 
group straightened out and heaped 
themselves In a pile on the floor. It 
was so well done that everyone came 
up smiling, as the curtains closed. 

Those in the class are: Orla Kendall, 
Carl Sandoz, Fred Harle, Alfred Ken- 
dall, John Thorne, Veldon Diment, El- 
don Newberry, Wesley Kaufman, and 
Cecil Newberry. 



ATHENA SOCIETY ELECTIONS 

The Athena Literary Society has 
chosen the officers who are to lead them 
for the remaining part of this year. 
The elections were held on March 13 
in the parlor of the girls' dormitory. 
Officers chosen are: 

Miss Verplank, faculty advisor 

Meredith Davey, president 

Winifred Woodward, vice-president 

Elizabeth Aebischer, secretary 

Mildred Smith, treasurer 

Eloise Crozer, social committee chair- 
man 

Elizabeth Lingle, marshall 

Margaret Weesner, critic 

Marian Coffee, reporter 

The installation will be held at the 
next meeting. 

After the business, the meeting was 
turned over to the new members. Be- 
cause of the proximity of St. Patricks 
Day an Irish program was presented. 
The main feature was a play entitled 
"The Work-House Ward." The meet- 
ing was a success and they all parted 
with many a laugh. 



BOYS' DINNER CLUB 

"Pull it out quick," came the cry. 
It was nearly too late but the sand- 
wich was still eatable. Occurrences o? 
this kind are very frequent at the meet- 
ings of the Boys' Dinner Club, which 
meets in the Academy basement near 
the furnace. The boys toast their sand- 
wiches in a variety of shades ranging 
from a delicate brown to an intense 
black. It has been discovered that two 
slices of bread wrapped around a raw 
egg and plenty of lettuce will develop 
into a deliciously crisp fried egg sand- 
wich, if properly toasted. The boys 
have developed a great deal of skill 
and their appetites have responded no- 
bly. 



Rothrock, Elizabeth Aebischer, Cecil 
Newberry, Orla Kendall, Marvin 
Barnes, Alfred Kendall, Ronald Hutch- 
ens, John Thorne. 



WHAT CAN IT BE? 

What is it that has come over our 
school lately? Why, all last semester, 
as far as we know, Pacific and all her 
students were entirely natural, that is, 
except when the Governor called for a 
fire drill in the men's dormitory. And 
now look what we have! It must be 
a disease, otherwise why should every- 
one be so crazy to get away on roller 
skates about dinner time? Why should 
others climb in the Gov's car and set 
off for the mountain to view the sun- 
set? What causes two girls to hike 
to Springbrook each day before break- 
fast, two well known tennis sharks to 
battle out a few sets every early morn, 
and a couple of other fellows to persist 
in taking up track work at 0:15 a. m.? 
What makes Coach Gulley "war whoop" 
continually during practice? Why does 
Spud Post flitter his i;ollicking tenor 
about in the atmosphere, and why does 
Miss Betts always ring the class bells 
three minutes late, and what makes the 
library clock stop? Why does Walt 
Taylor pose as an Invalid in front of 
the girls, and how does Dame McKib- 
ben's hair curl so cutely? What causes 
Smitty to run about like a beheaded 
chicken, and Fire Chief Choate to look 
and sigh at the rain and say, "No work 
for me today?" Why does President 
Huntington call so many student body 
meetings for no good reason at all? 
Why can't the Academy students sit 
still in the library, and why does Phil 
Gatch wear knickers and a scarf to 
school? We know of a thousand and two 
other things that we could mention, 
such as Freshmen hunting bullfrogs 
on the front campus, but we're trying 
to get at the cause for all this foolish- 
ment. Yes, you've guessed it! Why, 
to be sure, SPRING has SPRUNG!

Eldon C. Newbeiry spoke on "Boost- 
ing Your College." Mr. Newberry is 
the newly elected financial secretary 
for the college. 

Pacific College has everything that 
goes to make a good college. What 
about college loyalty here? 

Mr. Newberry suggested several ad- 
vantages of the college, which may he 
emphasized to influence students to 
come here. Speaking of the climate, he 
said, "You have the most wonderful 
climate in the world." He mentioned 
the beauty of the scenery, terming this 
"the most beautiful sport in the North- 
west." To the south is Crater Lake, 
to the north are the magnificent Col- 
umbia River and Columbia River High- 
way — far famed for grandeur of scen- 
ery- Right here is our own little city 
with its many churches and fine build- 
ings. 

In conclusion Mr. Newberry empha- 
sized that Pacific is already one of the 
finest colleges in the country, and urged 
that the students encourage other 
young people to come here. 

March 14 

A brief student body meeting was 
held. In oider to hasten selection of 
a student body play, the Dramatics 
manager was elected at this meeting. 
Genevieve Radley will fill this position. 
She will be chairman of a committee, 
the other members being chosen by her. 
March 15 

Dr. Lee, pastor of the Presbyterian 
church, spoke on cultivating a greater 
appreciation of the wonders of God. 
He emphasized the need of deeper de- 
votional life and analytical study of the 
Bible. 

The challenge comes to us to find 
God. He is hidden in His word. "The 
Word is the living Word and He is the 
Life," said Dr. Lee. 

In conclusion he suggested that we 
study to see the wonders of the Chris- 
tian experience, of the miraculous birth 
of Christ, and of the Bible, which pre- 
serves to us Christianity in its purity 
and beauty. 

March 22 

Chester Dimond, editor of the Newberg 
Graphic, was the speaker at the Friday 
chapel period. He told some of his ex- 
periences in the newspaper business, 
which, he said, had its "ups and downs" 
as any other business has. 

In speaking of the interest of the 
work, Mi'. Dimond said that it furnish- 
es a complete change each week. "There 
is romance, ministry, love, and hope 
in it," he said. 

In outlining his newspaper career, 
Mr. Dimond mentioned three chapters. 
His earliest experience was in a "one 
horse" town, where there were two 
newspapers. Later he moved to a larg- 
er town in a desert country. There 
he experienced sudden success at the 
time of a great oil rush, and as sudden 
loss. 

From there he moved to Newlierg 
where he has had several years of very 
interesting experiences in dealing with 
the public. 



Mrs. Rebecca AV. Smith spoke in Y. 
W., March 13, on the subject, "Mouths 
That Water Not." 

She Used several verses fiom the Bi- 
ble as texts: "Blessed are they that 
hunger and thirst after righteousness, 
for they shall be idled," and "Open thy 
mouth wide and I will fill it." Some 
people do not hunger and thirst after 
righteousness; that is, 'Mouths have 
they and they water not." She said 
that some people do not want to be 
Christians, because if they did they 
would like it, "and they just couldn't 
bear it." Other verses she used were: 
"This people draweth near me with 
their mouths, but their hearts afar off," 
and "Out of the same mouth come curs- 
es and blessing." Different kinds of 
mouths mentioned in the Bible are: of 
God, of babes, of the wicked, of the 
righteous, and of fools. She concluded 
with the words: "Whether ye eat or 
whether ye drink, whatsoever ye do, do 
it all for the glory of God." 

March 20

March 20 

The Y. M. meeting Wednesday, March 
20, was led by Dr. Clark of the Free 
Methodist church. The meeting opened 
with song, after which Dr. Clark 
brought a most helpful message on 
"The Christian Way of Life." The 
meeting was definitely evangelistic and 
was very well attended both by stu- 
dents and faculty members. Thank you, 
everyone. Let's turn out every Wed- 
nesday like the last one.

QUAKER GIRLS' SEXTET LOSES 
FINAL GAME TO REED GIRLS 



(Continued from page one) 



wards kept the ball above the heads of 
the shorter Pacific guards and conse- 
J quently converted enough of numerous 
wild shots to bring their number of 
points to their final total. The scores 
each half was about the same for each 
sextet. 

| Meredith Davey had her eagle eye 
I directed on the basket throughout the 
first half and did most of the scoring 
I in that canto. In the second half Es- 
ther Roberts began locating the basket 
and caged several herself. Dorothea 
Nordyke, jumping center, and Dorothea 
Woods, side center, handled the ball 
well, making several well directed pass- 
es to the forwards so that those girls 
were able to make baskets as a result. 
The Pacific guards, Irene Brown and 
Lillian Barnes, were greatly handicap- 
ped because of the elongated longtitude 
of the opposing forwards. Nevertheless 
these two girls played one of their best 
games of the year and by extreme ac- 
tivity on their part kept the Reed for- 
wards working for every point. Rachel 
Lundquist was substituted for Irene 
Brown during the third quarter.
